When its a warm or hot day the blazer will sputter and die especially going up hill. I cant start the blazer again until the motor is cool. I have a new fuel pump. It runs fine on cold or cooler days. The check engine light never comes on and the emission hae a strong odor when this happens.

Next time it stall do below immediately don't wait for it to cool down

Get a helper disconnect a sparkplug wire or 2 and ground it to the engine atleast 3/16 away from ground-have helper crank engine over-do you have a snapping blue spark? If so-you have a fuel related problem, check the fuel pressure to rule out the fuel filter/fuel pump/pressure regulator and listen to the injector/s are they pulsing or hook up a noid light. No snapping blue spark continue to troubleshoot the ignition system-power input to the coil/coil packs, coil's resistances, distributor pick-up coil, ignition control module, cam and crank sensors and computer Note: If it doesn't apply disregard it
